Beta time! Join me at 7pm EST to trial the NEW CurlingGeek site.

I'll be covering Chelsea Brandwood vs former WLU head coach Gary Crossely in a meaningless league game. Be kind...they didn't volunteer for this:

https://bootstrap.curlinggeek.com/broadcast/1420

For the web devs out there, the domain name is a hint. The new site is based on bootstrap3, with a lot of changes under the hood too.

Please share your feedback below. Please include the browser & device you are using

Thanks everyone for your feedback. Various bugs you identified have now been fixed.

- Team names on scoreboards for other sheets now display correctly
- Scoreboard for current sheet moved to header on mobile screens
- Rock positions now update even when browser tabs are in background
- Visitor count displays in chat area again
- Network Connection issues from some devices resolved (Network geeks: grrr...so many devices use invalid ephemeral port ranges, and my firewall was overly aggressive)

A few other issues are still left to sort out, but we are looking very good to turn the new site live in time for the Canadian Juniors starting on Saturday. We are up to 4 teams being covered, wifi permitting.
